Ingredients
Ragi flour – 2 cups
Big onion – 1
Red chillies – 3 to 4
Jeera – 1 teaspoon
Ground Nut – 2 tablespoon (Coarsely powder it)
Mustard – 1 teaspoon
Urad dhal – 1 teaspoon
Asafoetida – a pinch
Oil for frying
Salt – 1 teaspoon or as per taste
Curry Leaves – few
Directions
- Put the ragi flour in a large bowl and mix in salt, chopped onion, red chillies broken into small pieces, jeera, and coarsely powdered ground nuts.
- In a frying pan, heat one teaspoon of oil and add mustard. When it pops, add urad dhal and fry until golden brown.
- Add asafoetida and curry leaves to the flour mixture. Sprinkle warm water a little at a time and make a soft dough (thicker than adai batter and softer than chapatti dough).
- Heat a skillet and grease with oil. Take an orange size portion of dough and place it on the skillet.
- Wet your fingers in water and press the dough out into a round shape. Pour one teaspoon of oil around the edges. Cook over medium heat until the colour changes.
- Flip over and cook the other side.
- Serve plain or with any chutney.
- This dish is very nutritious and can be made even more so by adding a cup of grated carrots or any finely chopped greens to the dough.
